I've been coming to this infrequently for years. Ok, so they might not have the best service and decor but the food is always delicious and satisfying. They also stay open later than most food spots in brooklyn so they're great for those late night cravings.
In hopes of a taste of Guyana cuisine following a full morning of kayaking, with a friend, we replenished our stomachs for Curry Goat at $9.99. Time is of essence as the street parking Muni Meter restricted our dinning in experience for half hour. Disappointingly, service is extremely dismissive to our party and the lack of diet soda for my friend's liquid revelry preference. Personally, I do not intake soda of any genre since my teenage years, thus we both opt for water. I wanted to explore Caribbean cuisine as living in New York City entails a diversity of ethnic cultures. The Curry Goat was not entirely spawn hot on the spice index temperature. The name Bamboo Garden imbued a Chinese flair in Guyanese cuisine. First impression is a lasting impression… we were not greeted by a hostess upon our arrival to be seated at a table.
When requesting for the check, no wait staff were in plain sight ergo we punted our physical presence at the cashier station for payment. Our bill was incorrectly plow at us blindly totaling $25.00 which we both vocally disputed this utter dismay charge. According to the takeout menu Curry Goat is $8.99 but not, so this case as the dinning in menu is priced excessively higher. We were ultimately given a second incorrect bill for Curry Chicken at $9.99 despite of consuming Curry GOAT, nevertheless it is the same price. The cashier is very inexperienced with operating the register who sneak to snake a scowl a callous rude face. The manager callously stated the takeout menu is priced "differently" aka lower as opposed to excessively higher prices for dinning in. All in all given our party of two's billing debacle, by choice, we refused to leave a gratuity of any amount. Bamboo Garden staff never made amends for this billing transgression debacle. We were ready to abate without further ado. No amount of food can ever be measured by QUALITY of customer service in the restaurant hospitality business!! EEK!
Good food very poor customer service. Argh. It pains me to visit this place. It really does. Service is always slacky. But upside is they make tasty food. So despite my lack of tolerance for the service, I return to get my belly filled.
The price has also been a tad higher than I expect but after many years, I guess I have no other alternative in the area.
